Ms. Cross paused just outside the door, and looked back as Marcus called out his question. “Yes, the ring should stay with you if your powers cause you to transform in some way.” With that said, she stepped through the doorway, and gestured for the group to follow her.
The hallway beyond was something out of a science fiction movie. It was brightly lit by a row of lights that lead along the ceiling, which illuminated the white metal that made up the floor and walls. Occasionally, red, green, and yellow lights would blink on the walls, but the purpose of the lights was anyone’s guess. Rolling lazily upon the ground were black metal objects, which resembled oversized hockey pucks. Metal doors, much like the one they had just passed through, were interspersed along the corridor. Each of the doors had black lettering upon them: Weight Room, Lab 1, Lab 2, Lab 3, Training Room 1, Training 2, Training Room 3. There was also a door at the far end of the hallway, with the number one emblazoned upon it with red paint.
“The school was originally build over a complex system of caves, which allows us to have multiple floors that extend underground. This level houses the labs for the scientists that are employed here, as well as the most basic training areas. Students will be restricted to this first floor until a complete assessment has been done on their powers. Once it is completed this level will also house the expanded medical lab.” Ms. Cross droned on.
James
“Follow me,” the dark haired boy replied coolly. With that, he turned and made his way into the school, not even looking back to make sure that James was following him. They made their way through the hallways, and down a flight of stairs into the basement. They arrived in a small, white-walled room, and through an open doorway, James could see the rest of the group. “There you go,” the boy said.
